You know you are a Nursing student when...

Published

Some of you probably have seen a thread like this already.

I put this one up to "freshen-up" the forum.

I am pretty sure everyone has at least something they can throw up onto here.

So, I ask you fellow nursing student (or nursing student alumni)....what makes a Nursing student....erm...a Nursing student?

:yeah:

when you start diagnosing strange ppl on the bus....

You know you're a nursing student when...

You have so many flushes, alcohol wipes and rolls of tape everywhere! In your car, laundry, on the washer/dryer, on your desk, etc. I swear I could open my own supply store!

You ask perfect strangers when was the last time they had a bowel movement and what color, texture, etc was it? AND you don't feel embarrased.

You can guess the amount that you are currently holding in your bladder....about 1375 mL.

You know verbal judo and how to use it.

You can write a nursing diagnosis for anything!

You see children without a helmet and want to have a little educational talk with the parents.

You can pronouce Guillain Barre.

You know the days, hours and minutes until you graduate!

You have to choose two out of the three:

1. Good grades

2. Sleep

3. Social life

...because there is not enough time in the world for all three!! (and considering all-nighters, sometimes we only choose one.)

You know you're a nursing student when...

You get home and the people you live with ask how your day was and you reply

"It was pretty good, got to wipe a few asses, inserted a tube up a guys member, and you'll never believe this, I even got to stab a person in the arm with a needle."
